My son is passing stools three times a day, two times normally and once in very small quantity. The doctor suggested a stool test. The results of stool tests are attached. After the first test, Walamycin was prescribed for 5 days. I gave it for 3 days and stopped because his stools became normal. However, in the retest, I see pus cells again in his stool. Please suggest what should be done next.

Recurrent pus cells may indicate ongoing gut infection. Complete full antibiotic course and consider stool culture or pediatric gastroenterology review.

I had loose smelly stool and some pain. I started with Zenflox OZ. I also have celiac. My report says budding yeast in stool positive. What should I do?

Hi, my son was born on 29th January. He was doing fine until last week. Since then, he has had frequent motions, mostly liquid with tiny white solids. Doctors say he is unable to digest his mothers milk. His occult blood report is positive and reducing agent is also positive. The doctor has suggested feeding him only baby formula. We have consulted two doctors in the past week and are really worried. Please suggest?

I am attaching my report. Please explain what it means. Is there any medicine to relieve patchy hyperemia in the antrum, which suggests gastritis? I have had indigestion for five months, and my stools are thin, and I sometimes feel a burning sensation in my stomach. When I eat foods such as rajma, chole, paneer, milk, soybean and chicken, I often feel stomach discomfort for two days, and my stool becomes loose. Please explain in detail and help?
